Please HelpA The function shown on the graph has the same rate of change but a higher starting pointB The function shown on the graph has a smaller rate of chan class=

Respuesta :

First, we have to calculate the rate of change with two points. (2,4) and (0,-6)

[tex]m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}=\frac{-6-4}{0-2}=\frac{-10}{-2}=5[/tex]

We conclude that the rates of change are the same for both functions.

The function shown has a lower starting point, which is y=-6.

Answer is Option C.
